what is react responsible for? If you're referring to the explosion of SPAs, I think you should direct your blame to angularjs... React was just a better version of that revolution.
out of curiosity, how or what do you use codex/claude code for that beats opencode?

Am I going to have to find a shabbos goy to unblock my swarm? They already don't like when I ask them to turn on my lights.
It seems like the main selling point is going to be performance over tmux(or really any multiplexer) with the anticipation of giant multiplexer sessions resulting from increased AI agent usage(which is talked about in this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5gV6anSt-4).
I'm fairly new to using multiplexers and not a hardcore user as I'm mostly getting my feet wet with herdr at the moment. For the hardcore users, is performance really a bottleneck? How big are your sessions that you have rendering issues?
Regardless, whenever Mitchell talks, I'm interested so I'm signed up for the release notification and will definitely check it out!
That's a pretty narrow viewpoint. I could see many examples where it's better to work than focus on your kids... At least for society. Leader of a country comes to mind as one of those jobs
If you think about this in terms of systems... it's unsustainable. You'll eventually get to a point where the damage you've done requires a flow of wealth/energy that cannot be generated for everyone.
I'm assuming that we can drive our environment to that kind of state, maybe there's an upper limit on how bad the environment can get. I'm not a climate scientist and don't have the curiosity to look into if there's a limit to climate change.
They have the data but I wouldn't trust their analysis of it unless they release all the raw data which would be to the benefit of their competitors.
I'll give it a go next time! ty!
Yeah it's not scary but it can be frustrating...
Imagine bushwhacking your way through a bunch of conflicts while rebasing on main... Now you realized that you needed to do some other work before your pr is ready for review... Now you need to rebase on main again and get to relive conflict hell again.
Maybe I'm one of the stupid incompetent people referred to in this post but I haven't figured out a way to deal with the having to solve the same merge conflicts when I rebase again :(
Well that explains where my sessions went on my side project that I came back to after a few months... Thought I was going crazy

Hi all, I've been on parental leave and while working on my garage door, I thought to myself... it would be great to open up this garage door from my phone without having to buy a bunch of expensive stuff.That snowballed into, I want the garage door buttons on my car's rear view mirror to trigger automations in home assistant.I went down a bit of a hardware rabbit hole and wrote a little...
And here I am pooping out simple typescript... These articles always make me feel like I'm wasting my talents working on products that don't really have the need to leverage any understanding of what's happening under the hood at the CPU instructions level.
Hmm, if the caching layer doesn't change(I assume it was optimized for olap style queries), and the new parquet format is better for olap... I'm still not understanding how it performs well for oltp reads.
I'll give the article another read... Maybe I missed something. Thank you for the response! Really nice to be able to get info straight from people who work on the product
Maybe I'm too stupid to understand the article... How does this achieve performant querying for olap and oltp purposes?
Based on my understanding, olap queries will go to the parquet files which are stored in a columnar fashion and oltp style queries will go to a caching layer that sits on top of those parquet files?
What's the special sauce here? Seems like they're just caching the data which, for all intents and purposes, seems like the same solution of storing another copy of the data which is what they say they're avoiding.
one of the benefits of being on android and being able to sideload apps. Look up "revanced youtube" and you'll be able to turn off shorts.
ublock origin for blocking them on desktop. If you're on an iphone... uninstall youtube?
my quality of life has increased substantially... although sometimes the app bugs out and shorts still make it on my home page. I spend like 10 minutes scrolling through shorts and get a weird shock "how the fuck did I end up here?", restart the app and boom shorts gone again.

I'm going to work on building out a technical phone screen (ie. Interview before you're invited to a virtual on-site) soon targeted at full stack and backend product software engineers(mid-senior level) and wanted to see what topics/concepts have worked for folks in the past.I'm also interested in experiences/questions that interviewees had that were enjoyable.My initial thoughts are that I'm...
Does my wife also get this so she can be on the other side? Nevermind... I don't need the sad reality of her trying to swipe left and telling me she thinks the app is broken.
how do you and others get past all the permissions that onesec needs? They say everything remains on device; however, it's a closed source application so there's not really any way to confirm that besides looking at the packets that are going out of your phone.
this seems like an interesting idea I'd like to try but all the permissions it needs is terrifying to me... I understand why it needs them but there's no way for me to verify that they aren't doing anything funny with that access.
i'd disagree heavily with that... let's say you have an expense of an insurance policy that covers you for the next 10 years. You're paying for 10 years of service, that should be amortized over 10 years.
I'm a bit confused.
The lossy timeline solution basically means you skip updating the feed for some people who are above the number of reasonable followers. I get that
Seeing them get 96% improvements is insane, does that mean they have a ton of users following an unreasonable number of people or do they just have a very low number for reasonable followers. I doubt it's the latter since that would mean a lot of people would be missing updates.
How is it possible to get such massive improvements when you're only skipping a presumably small % of people per new post?
EDIT: nvm, I rethought about it, the issue is that a single user with millions of follows will constantly be written to which will slow down the fanout service when a celebrity makes a post since you're going through many db pages.
I'm gonna need the remove youtube shorts one
the only safe option anymore is the cup and string
casualties refers to injuries as well as deaths. I think the citation they were looking for was for the ~2800 number. I don't think it's reasonable to say that 6/12 killed were civilians, so half of all casualties were civilian.
We dont know until we get more reports, like you said, it could be higher... but it could also be lower.
I'd imagine they mean a room in a house... or someone's basement in englewood that's in a dumpy spot.
whoa that's very cool. can you share some info about how you set up the integration in ha? would love to explore doing something like this for myself
just watched the first 15 min. this is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!
as a lowly application developer who is interested in how llms actually work, where's a good place to start? is there an article or book that most folks would recommend?
